As we watch the summer come to a close, we begin to realize that another school year is about to begin.

Many of our children are leaving home to attend college.

Rev. Rogers has the right idea about mentoring college students. Those of us in college towns also have the responsibility to mentor our young people and to keep in touch with our A.M.E. youngsters who are leaving their homes to be with us.

Let's use this BB as a means of establishing and maintaining contact with our college students.

Bethel A.M.E. Church in Ann Arbor is near the University of Michigan. If any of you have students coming here, do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to offer our support.

Just like Bill Dickens, they need a good home-cooked meal from time to time.

Barbara thank you for your timely reminder. I also want to thank the athletic staff at our own A.M.E related college Paul Quinn, they will be helping our black athletes with an online mentoring program so that they will not feel so isolated. I also ask that we remember ALL college students regardless of color need spiritual support. Let us reach out to all students regardless of color. Campus ministry in most colleges is underfunded or non existent. Again Barbara thanks for being a servant of God!
